PS4, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch: which console to choose?
How to choose between the three consoles of the moment? Let's start with the most obvious: if you want to play on the living room TV, but also anywhere when it is already occupied by a member of your family, the Nintendo Switch is a unique console of its kind. Hybrid, it can be portable as fixed and Nintendo requires, it is the only console which allows to play games like Mariokart 8 Deluxe Animal Crossing or Luigi's Mansion 3. We appreciate the fact that many of these games are designed at least for one limited form of group game, with a second character who comes to lend a hand to the hero. With classics like Mariokart 8 or Super Mario Party, there is obviously enough to spend frenzied evenings with family!
Between the PS4 and the Xbox One, on the other hand, the choice is more difficult. These are two almost as powerful home consoles, and which offer the majority of playing the same games. Most of the big hits come out on PS4 and Xbox, and the versions are often close. The PS4 takes advantage of perhaps more numerous and attractive exclusive games, like Spider-Man or the series God Of War, Uncharted or The Last Of Us. On the other hand, the Xbox begins to regain interest with its excellent Game Pass service , which allows you to play a hundred unlimited games for 9.99 euros / month, including all Microsoft news, such as the beautiful and poetic Ori & The Will Of Wisps, already available on the service.
PS5, what to expect from the new Sony console?
Even if the PS4 is still very much alive, the future probably arrives at the end of 2020. The PS5 begins to reveal itself with enticing information on its technical characteristics and, at the same time, large gray areas. It is not yet known what it will look like, and its price remains a mystery. On the other hand, Sony has started to reveal what the PS5 has in the belly. Without going into technical details, we can remember this: the PS5 will be 5 to 6 times more powerful than the PS4. On paper, that says it all and its opposite, but we can expect even more beautiful and complex games than Uncharted 4, God Of War or Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
The difference will not be limited to raw power, but will also concern storage and access to memory. The PS5 will integrate an SSD which allows much faster loading times, while the memory bandwidth is almost 4 times higher. Latest info confirmed by Sony: the PS5 will be compatible, as soon as it is released, with almost all of the 100 most popular games of the PS4, pending exclusive releases on the future console.
